Painted Major ICs, Minors, Strict Neutrals

    As long as you know the flags on “countries” like Mozambique are post colonial era Communist designs, and are happy with the fact, then this is great work.

    Ah didn’t take that into account. They’ll serve their purpose though. I’ll try to look up 40s style flags when I do the Pro-Axis/Allied Neutrals. Not sure if any of those are different from the flags they have now.


  • isn’t it PycckHH (met ‘j’ signal on last H) for sovjet IC’s?

    I googled ‘Russia’ in Cyrillic and it gave me POCCHR Россия if you can see that.

    The ‘H’ is like a backwards captial N basically.

    I’m working on a set of cards for neutrals; these will contain authentic flag designs for the period.

    And roundels, natch.

    But bear in mind that many colonies did not have flags or armed forces of their own and were completely integrated with their colonial motherland.

    These ones seem to be the A&A Italian infantry units, just repainted.

    First off, badass table you have there man. I WISH I had that much space to try and construct something half as good.

    Actually all the neutrals I just used the 1986 second edition infantry. Just mixed up different countries and painted them white, then the flags on the roundels. Not zoomed in 500x they actually don’t look too bad  :lol:

    I’m using second edition pieces for the Pro-Allied/Axis as well, Allied will be all blue, Axis all red. Same thing with the flag painted on the roundel.


  • I kind of like this idea of the neutrals.  I think I may have to paint up a set.

    My Factories are almost done being painted.  I used decals from I-94 Enterprises instead of trying to paint flags on them.  Much easier and it came out nice.

    Pics Soon.

    Yeah I considered buying the decals. Makes the overall job look more put together and professional I guess you could say.

    How long does shipping take? I live in an APO so unless they’re shipped priorty they’ll take ages to arrive.

    Yep, in South Korea. If I have items from the states shipped to me Priorty Mail they arrive in about 6-10 days which isn’t bad for being half way around the world.

    South Korea. It’s one of the US bases that makes sense, unlike Germany, Britain, and Spain

    These look great, what does the Japanese writing on the factories translate to?

    ‘Nippon’ Japanese for Japan.

    Yeah, I ordered AAP40 from a company on Ebay. I told them to ship it Priorty, they shipped it Parcel and it took 7 weeks to arrive! (They didn’t hold it, only waited 1 day after I paid to ship it so that wasn’t the factor) I was pissed to say the least.
